^^got i hate it when people say that.

uh... if i were you, i'd just rebuild it for as cheap as you can, put a 5.0 int manifold on it, and turn it out for some profit.

Uh,,, intake on exploder = gt-40/cobra which is > 5.0 intake.



IMO: You should take the steps to convert it to an HO gt-40 engine and with exhaust and a good suspension high 12's should be attainable. Ive seen several people do it.

I mean, change out the cam and you got a mild HCI 5.0 HO

i thought you just rebuilt the motor in your car? or is the one in it an explorer motor?

 

[Bad92GT]

i rebuilt it.. and its crap.. yep.. crap.. for the work involved.. and the times it turned out (with a very experienced driver as well) was just crap.. so now im wrestless.. beautiful car that gets compliments from even the most dimmwitted car guys but cuts a bad time because the motor just doesnt have anything left.. pistes me off.. so i picked this one up lol

 

[pistonhead351]

didnt you run like a 13.2 with it?

 

[Bad92GT]

yep.. i know.. its slow... lol meh.. ive gotten use to it and want more.. thats with the stock heads on a fully loaded car, stock gears

Rebuild it, get yourself a 5.0 HO cam (F303 is pretty good in these engines), get the heads milled down and throw it in. It'll get you 12s if the rest of your car is set up for drag.
